Lately one of my e-mail inboxes has been getting flooded with s-p-a-m, and I'm not talking about the kind that comes in cans and smells like, well, pet food.

Most of the stuff is your usual crap-tastic 'add 1nches' or 'pl3asure her' or similar stuff.  Very obvious and easy to spot in the inbox as absolute junk.

There's also the offers for various types of natural enhancement, items with medicinal properties, etc.  Again, obviously junk.

But then there have been offer after offer pertaining to 'luxury watches' and 'replica watches' mixed in what crap and the crap where people want me to view the latest videos that haven't even hit MTV yet, or accept some e-Card that is supposed to wish me well (while it wipes out my computer or installs some trojan crap to grab passwords and possibly install worms and other crap on my PC).

I don't get the allure of any of the above, but I really wonder what is with the push for these watches.  Does someone out there know I'm a clock watcher?  Are they too stupid to also know I have cheap Casio wrist watches at my disposal from the closest K-Mart or Wally World?  Do they not know that I can see the time in the Windows Notification area?!?  That Outlook will remind me what the time and date are and what appointment I'm due for?
